Nomination statement

I'm applying for Checkuser, and willing to serve as an Oversighter if wanted or needed. My experience includes having been an active reporter at SPI since 2014 which started from seeing "visited" links in my browser when viewing w:Special:NewPages. I've been an SPI clerk for 18 months (full ticket for 12 months), and an admin for 6 months. The SPI work has been the focus of my wiki-activity for a long while and I'd welcome the opportunity to build on that.

I've revdeleted, mostly for copyvio & personal attacks, and requested oversight, mostly for kids oversharing personal info. If I'm to keep IRC/email open for CU work I may as well offer to do so for OS work also.

I'm semi-active on OTRS (and signed the confidentiality agreement), active on UTRS, and usually have IRC running in the background.

Nomination statement

Hello, I’m Anarchyte, and I am applying for Oversight. Over the last few years I’ve had quite a few of my suppression requests accepted and having been an admin for three years, I believe I now understand the requirements. I am familiar with how RevDel works, having used it countless times over my tenure as admin. I hope that through editing in an Australian time zone I can decrease some of the strain currently placed on Oversighters. Please note that I will be away from my computer for the first four days of the community consolation period (until 1 Oct). I will still try to respond to any questions raised during this time.

Nomination statement

I am applying for Oversight only, at this time. I began editing on en-Wikipedia in 2004 and became an admin in 2008 and, a year later, on Commons. I've been an OTRS team member since 2017. Having been around for a long time in these roles, I am quite familiar with Wikipedia processes, policies, and guidelines. As an oversighter, I would use sensitivity and mature judgment to determine when suppression is warranted.

Standard questions for all candidates (JGHowes)

Please describe any relevant on-Wiki experience you have for this role.
Have changed visibility where a user has disclosed real-world name or phone numbers of themselves or others.
Please outline, without breaching your personal privacy, what off-Wiki experience or technical expertise you have for this role.
Having a professional career at an executive-level in the aviation industry, I have had considerable experience working with law enforcement data and background investigations for hiring decision-making. As a former Air Force officer, I had security clearances.
Do you hold advanced permissions (checkuser, oversight, bureaucrat, steward) on this or other WMF projects? If so, please list them. Also, do you have OTRS permissions? If so, to which queues?
I have not previously requested those advanced permissions, but do have OTRS permissions (commons, info-en, and permissions queues)

Should the oversight policy be interpreted broadly or narrowly, and what is your reasoning for this? TonyBallioni (talk) 06:30, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
